About Kenyon's Government Documents

Kenyon's library is a congressionally designated depository for U.S. Government documents. Public access to the government documents collection is guaranteed by public law. (Title 44 United States Code)

Kenyon College has been a Federal Depository Library since 1873 and has a large collection of historical and current government documents. As a depository library, we provide free public access to government information in a variety of formats: in print, microfiche, and CD-ROM, as well as electronically. Kenyon also collaborates on a variety of government documents projects as part of the Five Colleges of Ohio consortium.

Finding Government Information in the Library

Search CONSORT for government documents, journals, CD-ROMs, electronic documents and more. Not all documents in Kenyon's collection are cataloged. If another CONSORT institution has the document you're looking for, take the SuDocs number from the record and look for the publication on Kenyon's shelves.

The Chicago Manual of Style Online (17th ed) is the venerable, time-tested guide to style, usage, and grammar in an accessible online format. It is the indispensable reference for writers, editors, proofreaders, indexers, copywriters, designers, and publishers, informing the editorial canon with sound, definitive advice. New in the seventeenth edition is coverage of social media, demonstrating how to cite publicly accessible posts and comments as well as direct, private messages. Other newly added source types include live performances, app content (including video games), published standards, self-published books, and maps (including satellite data).
